Avon, Ohio
Avon (/ˈeɪvɒn/ AY-von) is a city in northeastern Lorain County, Ohio, United States. The population was 24,847 at the 2020 census. It is part of the Cleveland metropolitan area.
In the 17th century, what is now Avon, Avon Lake, Bay Village, and Westlake were all once one territory. This territory was inhabited by various Native American tribes, such as the Wyandots, Ottawas, and Eries, who lived in wigwams or simple-stone dwellings. They settled, traded, fought, and later forcibly moved elsewhere.
Township Number 7 in Range 16 of the Western Reserve received its first permanent American settlers during 1814 from Montgomery County, New York, led by Wilbur Cahoon. The township was administered by Dover township and was part of Cuyahoga County. In 1818, Township Number 7 was organized and named "Xeuma", then later renamed "Troy Township". In 1824, Lorain County was created, and the name of Troy Township was changed to Avon Township. An Avon post office was established in 1825. The entire township was incorporated into a village in 1917, and became the City of Avon in 1961.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 20.87 square miles (54.05 km2), of which 20.81 square miles (53.90 km2) is land and 0.06 square miles (0.16 km2) is covered by water.
As of the 2020 census, Avon had a population of 24,847. The median age was 40.7 years. 28.4% of residents were under the age of 18 and 16.5% of residents were 65 years of age or older. For every 100 females there were 94.1 males, and for every 100 females age 18 and over there were 89.9 males age 18 and over.
100.0% of residents lived in urban areas, while 0.0% lived in rural areas.
There were 8,821 households in Avon, of which 41.5% had children under the age of 18 living in them. Of all households, 64.2% were married-couple households, 10.6% were households with a male householder and no spouse or partner present, and 21.1% were households with a female householder and no spouse or partner present. About 20.4% of all households were made up of individuals and 11.8% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.
